HP XP7 Replication Manager Application Agent CLI User Guide (TK981-96015, May 2014)

Specifying the retry count and interval for process status retry check
When Application Agent performs a cold backup or restoration, it activates or deactivates the service
of the DBMS product to be backed up or restored. When Application Agent activates or deactivates
the service, it checks the active/inactive status of the process. You can change the retry count and
retry interval for checking the status of a process by using the following parameters.
In a cluster environment, you do not need to change this parameter because Application Agent does
not reference this parameter.

of a process)
Specifiable values
(default)
DescriptionParameter
0 to 3600
(0)
• In this parameter, specify the maximum retry count
for checking the status of a process. Generally,
specify a value other than 0. When the backup is
of an Exchange database, the time to start the ser-
vice depends on the roll forward processing time.
For this reason, when the backup is of an Exchange
database, use the default setting.
• If you specify 0, Application Agent continues to retry
checking until it can check the process status. For
example, if the process has terminated with an error,
Application Agent will perform retries continuously.
• When changing the value of this parameter, make
sure that the product of the SVC_RETRY_TIME-value
and SVC_RETRY_WAIT-value is sufficiently larger
than the time required for the completion of process
startup or stopping.
SVC_RETRY_TIME
0 to 3600
(1)
In this parameter, specify the same number of seconds
as the retry interval for checking the status of a process.
Generally, you do not need to change the value of this
parameter.
